Believe Me

A Memoir of Love, Death and Jazz Chickens

De: Eddie Izzard

Narrado por: Eddie Izzard

Get to know a national icon in Eddie Izzard's hilarious and dazzling autobiography.

Star of stage and screen. Tireless supporter of charity. Marathon runner. Political campaigner.

Fashion icon. Human.

There is no one quite like Eddie Izzard. This is the story of how she broke through.

Her relentless optimism has led her to always do things her own way, even if it didn't work the first time, and her incredible self-belief has pushed her to keep on trying, even if it didn't work the second or third time either.

Whether she was putting on teddy bear shows on boarding school beds or swordfighting on the streets of London, Eddie never stopped trying to achieve her dreams of becoming a performer.

Brimming with her distinctively surreal humour and disarming candour, Believe Me tells the story of a person who never took no for an answer.

"Comic genius.... Entertainment incarnate." (Telegraph)

"Laughter trumps sorrow in candid comedian Eddie Izzard's Believe Me." (Vanity Fair)

"A comedy gem." (Guardian)

Unexpectedly awesome

I found this book informative and heartwarming, as well as funny, that gives an insight into what mindset and determination can achieve. I thought it was awesome.

"... End of footnote..."

So generous and inspiring. I never knew he spent those early years in Northern Ireland (as did I) and now I love him more!

Amazing

a joy to listen to. Eddie adds his wonderfully unique spin to reading this and I loved it all.

Grit: A story of determination

Perhaps not quite what was expected - but if you want to learn about determination and finding self belief this is a must. The footnotes ramble a bit but that is part of the charm.

Thank you Mr Izzard, a great listen.

I love Eddie even more after sharing this insight

Fascinating , intelligent and fun. Eddie deserves to be happy. He/she makes me happy too.
